The statistical report of the Illinois
state board of agriculture has the follow
ing from Rock Island county.
The condition OF the growing corn is
better than for Il number of years past on
the first of July. A good rain is needed
at this time. Winter wheat and rye do
not promise more than three fourths of
an average yield per acre. Spring wheat
has not done we'll but little over half a
crop is expected. Spring barley and
oats promise fair yield per acre. Irish
and sweet potatoes are nearly up to the
average in condition for July /. Mead,
ows and pastures have seldom been in
poorer condition on July 1. Field beans
are are dong well. The wool clip is
about ten per cent short of that of last
season.

The match game of base ball between
the Rock Island base ball club and the

tirely devoid of interest because OF the
great number of errors made on each side.

pitched good game. though be was not
properly supported. and being thus handi
capped he was unable to display his
strength and skill. He is master of all

and deceptive down shoot and throws an
exceedingly swift ball as well, and il
there had been a catcher acquaint-

bases. as scarcely safe hit was made
by the country lads. Nevertheless SchereI

BLOOD POISON.

Three years ago / contracted a blood
poison. Iapplied to physician at once
and his treatment came near killing me.
| employed an old physician and then
went to KY. then went to Hot Springs
and remained two months, but nothing
seemed to cure me permanently, although
temporary relief was given me. My con
dition grew desperate and applied to q
noted Qusck, but l did not improve. l
then used a preparation which was pres
scribed gratis" but it contained too
much alcohol and aggravated my suffer
ings. | then plaesd myself under the
treatment of noted Nashville physician
and for a time was benefited, but by fall
| returned home ruined man physically
and financially. with but little prospects
of ever getting well, My money being
exhausted, did not know what to do.
In May, 1885. my mother persuaded me
to get bottle of B. B. B. (made in At
lanta) and did so to crafty her, but to
my utter establishment had not finished
the first bottle before every ulcer had
been healed.
To the present time | have used five
bottles and have received more benefit
than from all the rest combined; and am
satisfied that B. B B is the most woDs
derful blood purifier ever before known,
and urge ali afflicted young men to try
one single bottle and be convinced. l
can truly say | think it the best medicine
in the world. e. T. HALLERToN.

Stores of Bottled Sunshine,

A remarkable popularity OF the life
these modern days is the discovery of i'm
mense cellars of bottled sunshine For,
speaking unconventionally, how can We
better describe our coal fieldss From these
we oStain heat, light and force, by fires,
gas and steam engines, to wonderful eX-
tent. At present we use this in a very
wasteful fashion. And as rule we do not
get per cent. of the energy stored in the
coal we use. AT recent trial of steam
engines one was able to use II per cent. Of
the energy stored in the coal it burned
and that was thought a remarkable result
The great problem evermore is, at which
shop can we get our sunshine most cheap
ly! Direct solar power can only be had
very occasionally, and the cost of bottling
Is high. Water power can only be had mt
certain places, and hence often leads to
expenses which prevent it being economi-
cal. Similar is it with wind power. Horse
power is dear; the growth of the food of
the animal, his stable and attendants run
into money. At present coal power is the
cheapest. Electric machinery is not a
source; is is only Il medium; not . bottle,
but a glass, from which energy is con-
suned. 1t needs power to produce an
electric current. Its value in the convey
ance Of energy is very great; SO that in
time it may prove Il cheap way of getting
sunshine to work.-Chrstian ut Work.

4 man who owns an apartment house
on Back bay was asked the other day if
he had let all the suites in it,
''Oh, yes" he replied. Il have Just let
the last to summer boarders."
Summer boarders,' repeated the
other. What in the world do you means'
Whereupon the householder explained
that the lessees were people from New
Orleans, who came north when the heats
OF spring came on, and who took the
apartments for the year in order to be
provided with accommodations which
pleased them. This suggests unlimited
possibilities of the Box and Cox order
The owners Of apartments who are
shrewd enough and % a commercial con-
science sufficiently flexible will hereafter
endeavor 10 let furnished suites to north
erners for the winter and TO southerners
for the summer, each tenant, of course,
paying full years rent. From such a
practice To- light comedy is, of course, but
a step. One family will be day late in
moving in or one family will be day
late in noving out, and there is an eX-
cuse for a tanyle of complications only
limited by the boundaries of the invention
of the authcr.-Providence Journal.
